Bianca Censori: Kanye West presents her like a farmer his cattle

She is the woman without a voice, without opinion – and without clothing. Bianca Censoris nude appearance at this year’s Grammys was not particularly surprising. For some time now she has become Kanye West Accessory and has repeatedly herself in the headlines. The reason for this is neither her work as an architect, nor anything else that suggests that Censori could have a personality. The only guilty of their outfits, which is supposed to choose west personally for them.

Usually, this is nothing more than nylon tights that hardly cover your body. In the Grammys, Censori applied a completely transparent dress under a fur coat that left no questions open.

Fans of Kanye West are still likely to talk to the mouths in a linty manner to explain this appearance as art. Again and again West publicly causes a stir, its anti -Semitic statements – actually reason enough that it would have to be banished by public events – are only a small part of it. And again and again his most loyal supporters come and emphasize that the rapper is simply a genius and his talent would be misunderstood.

But Censoris Outfit at the Grammys was not art. Rather, Kanye West recalled a farmer who presents his cattle. If you look at the video recordings from the red carpet, it is easy to see that Censori reacts exactly to her husband’s instructions. He gives her a sign that she should drop her fur coat. According to the lip readers, he meafed her to “make a scene”. “Let it fall behind you and then turn around, I have you,” he said to her. “All right, let’s go,” Censori is said to have answered. The moment Censori stands almost completely naked in front of the photographer and her flashing cameras, West takes a step aside and examined “artwork”.

Does Kanye want to show how women become objects on the red carpets of this world? Did he want to reproduce the album cover of “Vultures”? Everything – with a lot of imagination – possible, but it shouldn’t matter what Kanye West wants. The big problem is that his wife doesn’t seem to have a voice. The appearance did not look like a fashion statement or a feminist sign. The nudity paired with the silence of Censoris looked dark and disturbing. There can be no talk of female empowerment, especially not on an evening that was indeed shaped by so many successful artists – without having to appear naked.

If Censori had stepped over the red carpet alone, the discussion could be different. But as can be seen in videos, it can be completely guided by west. He pretends what to do. And Censori performs his instructions. In one moment she tries to continue pulling the little fabric she wears over her bare butt. Of course, the Australian can wear what she wants. And she can clothes her body as little as her is. But the contrast of the naked woman next to the fully clad man, who then examines her, is disturbing. This is not about empowerment or art, but about control. In this case, nudity becomes a visual sign of submission. A concept that is unfortunately older than West and Censori together.

Art dealer Leo Braudy, known from the reality TV series “Love is blind”, took up the topic on his Instagram channel. “Nobody seems to be doubted that the appearance is strange or misogymer. Only in the event that a few people say that this is a form of art, I would like to explain why I don’t believe it and what real nudity in the Art is “, said Braudy. As a comparison, he named Yoko Ono’s performance piece “Cut Piece” from the 1960s.

At that time, ono sat in “loosely sitting clothes, and the spectators could come with scissors and cut parts of their clothes,” said the art expert. “What made this piece so powerful was the vulnerability of the artist, because she let people approach her with scissors and allowed them to do what they wanted with her and to expose them as they thought it is right . The piece also played with the objectification of women in the human form and all possible deep philosophical concepts, “he said. It was “provocative”, especially at the time. “The fact that Bianca was naked at the Grammys was also very provocative, but in my modest opinion this is not art. Because provocative does not necessarily mean art,” he summed up.

Anyone who still believes in the good intention should listen to “Carnival”, the song by Ty Dolla Sign, for whom west was nominated for a Grammy. The pornographic song text leaves no doubt as to what West aims with the display of nudity.

It is not new that the musician wants to keep control over his women. In her autobiography “Down the Drain”, West’s ex-girlfriend Julia Fox describes how he also made her regulations. At that time he hired an entire team that was responsible for her outfits. As one of them did not fit properly, he offered her to give her breast augmentation. Fox, who had just got a child, declined. It was a game from “sick control”, says Fox.

Kim Kardashian also spoke in the past that West had had great influence on her style. In the past, she liked to wore shrill outfits and a lot of bling bling, he taught her minimalism. “Kanye definitely inspired me to be a little more individual. I think my style is developing and changing, and I think he should,” she said too. In a scene in her documentary soap “Keeping up With the Kardashian “, spectators were witnessing how the entrepreneur was sorted out for the West. Kardashian cried for her clothes at the time.

The difference between Kardashian and Censori is: the former kept their voice and built up a fashion parial. Kardashian has an immense range, when speaks, everyone would listen. Censori could have been removed as well as the vocal cords. You know almost nothing about the woman on Kanye’s side. In the meantime you know what every inch of your body looks like.
